He has at- tended a number of seances and told a reporter that the public would be sur- prised if they knew how many leading professionsl men attend seances and con- sult mediums. He told of a well known lawyer who goes to medtums to consult about cases, and when the reporter’s in- formant asked the lawyer 11 he really be- lieyed.in sach things, the reply was that one must believe what one sces. During his investigations the reporter’s inform- ant met several clergymen at the seances, He had been told that one of the medi- ums here had sheltered a murderer sev- eral weeks, for whose detection $10,000 had been offergd. “TI'll tell you what I did at one of the seances,” he added. ‘It was where they produced what they claimed was the spiritof an Indion. I interrupted the proceedings by asking if I might say a word. The request was reluctantly granted. Then Il told them that 1 had $100 in my pocket which I would make the medium a present of, on condition that [ should be allowed to put my hands on the Indian spirit or any other of their spirits. My proposition was declined on tne ground that it would hurt the me- dium it I placed my hands on him when he upyelred as the spirit of another. When I allowed them to attempt to call up a spirit for m dium people 1 had to pay the me- 5, and it'is astonishing how many are led to hand in their money. But when the spirit began to tell me about what huplmncd ‘before 1 was married,’ that settled it, for I was not a married man. Before this they tola me they had a communication from the spirit of Alice Cary, warning them against me, and once they got off some verses which they said were sent by the spirit of Longfel- low. At the house where I was boarding there was a y()lln‘i man s0 thoroughly converted to the faith that he said he be- lieved a medium could make a big book go straight through a table or desk without leaving a hole or a break. He told me that in the day tima, at a seance, he had been lifted up, together with the chair in which he had been sitting, and carried to another part of the room by invisible power. BURLINGTC ROUTE.

There was an overwhelming crush of the elite of every dencminations in fact, if a few hundred had absented themselves, there would have been breathing space for the singers and more satisfactory results might have been achioved all around ex- cept in a financial sense. Itis a question who are the greatest martyrs, the audi- ence or the musicians at & musicale held in a private house where the acoustics are necessarily faulty and the crowd un- pleasantly dense. The singers are com- pelled tosubmit themselves to critical in- spection with a depressing consciousness of being unequal to the ordeal and the audience expected *to smile and smile’ their appreciativeness no matter what their ~ inner conyigtions may be. Last night the programme was un- usually fine, introduding as it did the soprano Miss Sherwin, and the violinist Johann Rhodes, assisted by leading local talent. Miss Sherwin gvas out of voice and sang to the greatest disadvantage in the smothering atmdsphere, but she has b heard here befgrgywhen she did her- self justice. In spitd of drawbacks she made a fine impression and universally vleased with her sweet and highly culti- vated voice. She not only displayed great flexibility but ;syfi: with much feel- mg. Her numbers, Ihcluding encores, were ‘“The Swiss EclioSong,”" by Eckert; *‘Aimee Moi,” Mazutida Chopin; ruh- lings Bluman,” by Beinecke, with violin obligato. Johann Rhodes proved to be an artist of rare excellence and carried off much of the honors of the evening. He is one of the most sympathetic play- ers in his profession. He gave several selections, but the gem of them all was Chopin’s “Nocturne'’ (in k flat). He was assisted greatly by the musicianly ac- compamments of ‘Martin Cahn. ~ Mr. Pennell, Mrs. Gunkel and the Mendels- shon quartette gave the rest of the pro- grawme, A. J. Poppleton in the Country.

Boston Advertiser: It is often a source of wonder how 80 many ship captains amass large fortunes, build palatial resi- dences, and settle down, after a life of hardship and exposure, as the seers and prophets of their native villages. To be sure, since tho days of high freights and vast profits of the East Indian (trade, when a vessel frequently paid for her- self in one voyage, fewer opportunities are afforded to owners and captains to accumulate fortunes with the rapidity of former daps. Still there are methods by which the crafty commander of the ship is enabled to pick up a few stray dollars. The law provides that the captain of every ship shall provide « “'slop chest,” containing boots, oilskins, socks, under clothing, ete., to be sold to the sailors, including a goodly supvly of tobacco. The law also provides that the profits of the captain from the sales shall be limited to 10 per cent. This, however, is rarely enforced, and the captain disposes of tobacco that costs 30 cents per pound for 75 cents §1, and often $1.50. The other contents of the slop chest are also doled out to the sailors, with whom it 13 a case of Hob- son’s choice, at cnormous profits to tne captain’s pocket. Captains, also, have a_peculiar fond- ness for commissions, and when lying at a port the buteher, she ship ehandier, and the bum-boatman all willingly agree to pay over a_certain percentage of the money received from the ship for the sake of obtaining the trade. Moncy has to be hired to meet tha bills; and here, too, the inevitahle commission jingles in the pockets of the master of the ship, at gea an autocrat, on shore an object of adnlation. Vessels in distress are often obliged to hire large sums of money to meet the expenses of repairing, and part of the interest paid and the large bonuses of the advances find their way into the open pocket of the craftly muariner. As an 1illustration, the writer was on board a ship, the second mate of which was to be discharged at a foreign port. ‘The captain, in making up the accounts ready to be submitted to the consul, found that he had been charging the mate 70 cents per pound for tobacco. ““Those fellows on shore will get all his money, anyhow,"’ said he, *‘and I reckon 1 might as well have part of it.” "Accord- ingly tobacco was entered in the bill $1 per pound, and other items of the ac- count were increased in like proportion. From this short account it will be seen that captains still have opportunities to make a little money ‘‘on the outside.” ‘I'he amounts made by some l?lmllg.' gling soon enable them to retire from t| sea and live a life of ease, .
